SCARY MOVIE

Rating: 8/10 (1 November 2002)

Just seen this movie on its opening night in Britain.Its dark,edgy,sad,brutal,occasionally funny and although it seems to have been shot on a video camera you soon get used to the fuzzy blurred images. The opening 20 minutes as a half naked man wonders through the deserted streets of London is stark and menacing and mostly completely silent except for an eerie soundtrack. The violence when it comes is brutal and blood splattered, it takes a lot to scare me but this had me squirming in my seat awaiting the next attack.Great film, hope it gets a release in the US, cant find an opening date listed here.
